Chapter 13 Chapter 13 Tit for Tat
The eldest son of the Niu family, who was sleeping, didn't notice at all that there was an extra person in the room.
Snoring is loud.
After a few days, Ye Yu was very familiar with Niu Da's room, including where he hid his money and bills, in the medicine box and pencil case in the clothes box.
It was quite a lot of money. A dozen or so Big Unity notes totaled more than a hundred yuan, and there were also a lot of small changes, which added up to almost two hundred yuan.
This was an era when the average wage of workers in the old city was only a dozen or twenty yuan. Many families could not save more than a hundred yuan in a year, so two hundred yuan was really not a small amount.
There were about 60 or 70 tickets, with the majority being industrial tickets. The three major items included a watch ticket and a sewing ticket. Although these tickets were valuable, it was difficult to explain their origins after purchasing them.
Oil coupons, soy sauce coupons, etc. were of little use to him, but he still accumulated a small stack of them; there were only a few sugar coupons, grain coupons, meat coupons, and non-staple food coupons left, and most of them were spent.
These banknotes had nothing to do with the Niu family. They were all obtained from the spoils. Ye Yuhei confiscated them without any hesitation and did not leave him a single cent or banknote.
Throw it all into space.
It’s not easy, her space finally has something valuable in this era.
Ye Yu stepped forward and chopped the sleeping man unconscious with a knife, blocked his mouth, wrapped him in an old quilt, carried him up and appeared outside the yard in an instant.
A person weighing about 100 pounds seemed so light in her hands that he seemed to have no weight at all.

Not slower than a single person at all.
When passing the corner of an alley, he rushed in, and when he came out, he had another person in his hand.
The place where this person hid things was not secretive enough either, but Ye Yu had decades of experience in searching for supplies, so he easily found the target and took the money.
Maybe because this man distributed the money and bills to his family members and did not have as much as Niu Da, Ye Yu did not search his entire house, which would be time-consuming and laborious, and only took what was in front of him.
Continue parkour.jpg.
In the 1960s, there were many wheat fields in the second ring of Yanjing City, and they had two bases here.
Ye Yu found one of the bases, tied the two men's hands and feet with the hemp rope in the base, tied a fisherman's knot, and threw them together.
Then follow the same method to find other people.
Some people did not live in their own rooms. They were quietly taken away from their brothers and sisters who shared the same bed or kang. Some lived in high-rise buildings, where there were many people in a small space.
During the whole process, space teleportation was used to the extreme, adrenaline was rushing, it was really thrilling.
It took Ye Yu an hour and a half to round up the entire gang. They gathered them at the base and tied them up with ropes. Not enough ropes? Three or four people shared one.
At this time, some people had already woken up, but their mouths were blocked and they couldn't scream loudly. They struggled and whimpered. Regardless of whether they were awake or not, Ye Yu beat them all.
He didn't kick, he used his fists.
Mainly because fists made it easier to control the force, she had deliberately avoided their fatal acupuncture points. After so many battles and training sessions in the apocalypse, her understanding of the human body had deepened. Regardless of the severity of the injuries, at least they wouldn't be fatal.
It's not that Ye Yu can't kill people once and for all without having to go through the trouble of catching them from their homes. It's not that she can't do it. After all, to be honest, she has killed quite a few people in the end times. It's just that as a new person in a new era, she has to abide by some rules and maintain some bottom line as a human being. Most importantly, she doesn't want to destroy this relatively peaceful world.
These people are not worth it!
Ye Yu was much more "gentle" in judging people than the red armbands. It was a bit chilly in late autumn, and after the beating, the old quilts on their bodies could just keep them warm.
In addition, two gold hairpins, a pair of gold earrings, two gold bracelets, a pearl necklace and some silver jewelry were taken out from a jar of stolen goods at the base and scattered on their bodies and on the ground.
She kept the rest of the stolen goods.
There are not only things from this base, but also things from other bases. In total, there are three and a half jars of gold, silver and jewelry, shining brightly with gold and jewels.
Oh, there is another place.
There is a scrap yard near the outskirts of Sijiu City. This scrap yard is the main base of the Triangle Eyes gang. Due to the chaotic situation, they dare not take the treasures they get back home, and hide them all in a basement of this scrap yard.
The scrap yard is simply a perfect place. Not only can it hide things, but the valuable ones among the "scrap" sent in are also picked out and sent to the basement, which makes the things in the basement more and more.
It is far from comparable to those three jars.
There are not only scattered gold, silver and jade ornaments, but also gold bars, gold bricks, as well as antiques such as porcelain, calligraphy and paintings, and Guanyin statues, any one of which is worth a fortune.
Ye Yu has never understood antiques in his two lives, and no one is involved in this in the apocalypse. The price of gold has not yet recovered in the Hope Base, and it is not even as good as a big watermelon.
But it is not the end of the world now, or it is still hundreds of years away from the end of the world.
These antique gold ornaments can guarantee her a wealthy and leisurely life after 10 years of chaos, and can be exchanged for more things she wants. Moreover, the green jadeite, phoenix hairpins, etc. are indeed exquisite. Who doesn't love beauty if conditions permit?
Ye Yu didn't stare at the group of people with triangular eyes.
Firstly, Triangle Eyes has a complicated background, and his residence is even more complicated. There are also guards patrolling at night. The time for a few days of surveillance is not enough, and the time for a night of robbery is even less. We can only hope that Niu Da and the others can catch as many of them as possible, which can be regarded as recycling waste and getting rid of pests.
Tonight's activities are over.
Accompanied by the twinkling stars, Ye Yu returned to his courtyard, replenished some energy, rinsed his mouth, lay down on the bed, and fell asleep soon.
zZZ～
The next day, Ye Yu got up late. When he woke up, Wang Lai Di had already prepared breakfast.
Perhaps because Ye Lan is worried about getting married and Ye Yu is about to leave, the quality of the food has improved significantly recently.
Wang Lai Di gritted her teeth and bought a few bags of Fuqiang flour from the supply and marketing cooperative. Her breakfast these days not only includes sweet potatoes, pumpkins, corn and miscellaneous grains, but also fine grains and white flour.
In the morning, there are soft white steamed buns to eat. Corn paste mixed with white flour is also delicious. You can also make egg pancakes, vegetarian buns, and tofu buns.
It’s really delicious.
It would be nice if there were big meat buns.
Unfortunately, since the black market was closed, there is only one way to buy raw meat. It is supplied at a fixed time at the end of each month, but it is not always available. Some people get up at three or four in the morning to buy meat, and by dawn the line is already from the entrance to the end of the alley. Whether those who get up late can buy it depends on luck.
In order to have food, Ye Yu was not afraid of getting up early at all. The problem was that she couldn't stay until the end of the month, so she had no chance at all. Fortunately, she was lucky enough to get a few meals from Ye Xing and Ye Lan.
Ye Yu was munching on a white flour bun with spicy and sour cabbage, thinking about meat, meat, meat, meat.
Before finishing breakfast, there seemed to be a noise outside the yard. The sound became louder and louder, and I heard an old man and an old woman calling the name of the head of the Niu family.
Wang Lai Di put down her chopsticks and said, "So what? It seems like it's next door to us."
"It seems like someone is talking about Daniu? Daniu hangs out outside every day. Could it be that he has attracted the Little Red Soldiers again?" Ye Hongjun frowned. The eldest son of the Niu family was a thief when he was young, and he looked like a gangster when he grew up. What's more, he wore a coat with a red armband, which made everyone in the compound very annoyed.
I don't dare to really offend such a scoundrel.
"It has nothing to do with us." Ye Yu said calmly while chewing the steamed bun.
Ye Baoguo and Ye Weiguo could not wait any longer and went to watch the fun with steamed buns in their mouths. Ye Hongjun and Wang Laidie would not let them go out, so the two brothers could only stick their butts out and look outside from inside the house, exclaiming in amazement. Later, Ye Hongjun and his wife also followed to watch. It turned out that eating melons and watching the fun was the nature of the Ye people.
They saw many strangers passing by the Ye family and heading towards the Niu family, all of them looking very impressive.
"Hey, there are a few more in blue uniforms."
The Niu family had a really lively feast. Although old Mrs. Niu was old, her voice was still loud. Her voice was so loud that it could be heard by the whole courtyard, and it more or less revealed some information.
Several men in blue uniforms picked out several households in the yard and went to their homes one by one to ask questions, including the Ye family.
When facing the blue uniforms for the first time, Ye Hongjun and Wang Laidi were very reserved and cooperative. They said what they thought and even told the story of Da Niu wetting the bed when he was twelve years old.
Because they did not contact Daniel about the previously reported matter, they did not even mention this matter.
Ye Baoguo and Ye Weiguo were also chattering away. Ye Weiguo was the least in awe and more in admiration. He admired the soldiers and the policemen. He jumped up and down and tried to ask back about the situation.
Ye Yu didn't say much, but no one would connect this incident with a young girl under the age of 18. They initially speculated that this should be a crime committed by multiple people, targeting Da Niu and his gang rather than Da Niu alone.
After those people left with the Niu couple, more people came out of the house, and there were also people from the neighboring yard who came to join in the fun. The onlookers talked one after another and finally pieced together the whole story.
It turned out that something happened to the Niu family’s beloved grandson!
"I heard he was beaten up, and the local police came."
"I just saw him yesterday, just one night ago. How come he was beaten up?"
"He went out to steal chickens and dogs at night. The Niu family is really careless. They didn't say a word when such a big kid disappeared. Snakes and rats are of the same nest. They must know what bad things Daniu is doing."
"Stop talking! Do you want Auntie Niu to point at your nose and scold you for a month?"
"Curse them all! Word's coming from the streets that Da Niu and his gang are in a terrible state. They're all beaten black and blue, their mouths gagged with torn socks (nonsense), and they were left out in the wilderness. A passing cyclist found them this morning. It's said he was attracted by the glittering gold (?) all over the ground."
The person who said this paused deliberately, and as she wished, many gasps were heard.
"gold?"
"Gold everywhere?"
"How much gold is that? Silver is easy to say, but I've never seen or touched gold in my entire life. Is it yellow? Is it harder than iron?"
"Oh my god, what are Daniel and the others doing?"
"You won't get beaten up for being a traitor, will you?"
"Maybe it has something to do with the old landlords, those black-hearted people of theirs..."
"Hush! You're going to die if you say that."
Blah blah blah…
It was not until someone shouted, "Oh, we're going to be late" that everyone reacted. Those who were going to work went to work, and those who were going to school went to school. The alley suddenly became much quieter.
But the rest of the people were still talking.
